Trade law
Admittedly, this post is not going to discuss NAFTA or TPP directly. I've chosen this week to write a quick post about international trade law because it is an important aspect of NAFTA, TPP, or any trade agreement. The laws that surround trade are complex and ever changing. This ensures that the nations involved within the agreement will hopefully always receive fair representation. The laws are written and put in place by the government and each country has it's own set of laws/regulations. Below are links where you can find some of the rules and regulations for the U.S.
United States Court of International Trade

I thought that this post was very interesting and knowledgeable. As many would agree trade is a very important thing. Nerveless International trade is an even bigger thing. It is also important to keep specific laws in line while keeping them fair at the same time. We can only say that we hope that the nations involved receive fair representation. These links that you have also posted are loaded with great information dealing with the laws. The one thing that really caught my attention was the history behind the United States Court of International Trade. Here they talked a lot about the Courts jurisdiction, powers, and procedures that are involved.
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
Before I wrote this specific blog post and posted the links, I honestly had no idea that there were so many regulations and procedures involved with international trade. I'm glad to hear that you found the post insightful!

I find it hellarious that the FTC has a SafeWeb Act. and that Information Sharing: The FTC has shared compelled or confidential information in
ReplyDeleteresponse to 38 requests from 14 foreign agencies in 6 countries. In several of these
matters, the FTC and the foreign agency both subsequently initiated enforcement
proceedings against the investigative targets.
That is it... that is how many cases it had to deal with for the sharing side of this. Hardly worth publishing.
Thank you for sharing this....
